Folding and self-association of atTic20 in lipid membranes: implications for understanding protein transport across the inner envelope membrane of chloroplasts

As a result of novel expression techniques, the recombinant Arabidopsis thaliana protein Tic20 is shown to exist in both monomeric and higher-order forms, with implications for its role as chloroplast membrane preprotein channel protein.
